many of those commits are in private repos. I've seen people pushing e.g. weather data to GitHub in regular intervals blowing up their commit numbers. Just check this to find crazy numbers: https://committers.top/

I use AwesomeWM on Linux since over ten years. For example, GIMP works without any issues. And the productivity boost is tremendous, for me it's very hard to work on anything else. I barely encounter programs where it does more harm th

Mathematically speaking the paper is correct. I think it actually depends what you define as "pixel". Sure, the pixel on your screen emits light on a tiny square into space. And sure, a sensor pixel measures the intensity on a tin

I changed recently from X1 Yoga Gen 2 to X1 Yoga (2-in-1) Gen 9. The decline in quality is so clearly visible, the external pen is poorly designed and died after 6 months. The hinges are as loose as in a 600$ laptop. The whole thing makes c

For me the speed is already there. LLMs can write boilerplate code at least an order of magnitude faster than I can. Just today I generate U-Net code for a certain scenario. I had to tweak some parameters, at the end I got it working in &lt

I feel like the most important factor is UI consistency. If the UI changes, it costs so much time and re-learning. Thunderbird has mostly been the same since many years. The only thing I noticed is, that the quick search has become buggy an

Yes, Sigma ART lenses are insane for that price. Also, they look very elegant compare to plastic Canon lenses. I was hoping for the new Sigma BF camera, simple and elegant. Unfortunately no Bluetooth, which is a deal breaker for me.

In most cities going by bike is even faster. Ofc, it needs some effort to overcome weather, sweat. But at the end it pays off. Full privacy, free workouts, faster commute, being outside (getting sun, maybe fresh air). Invest in a good bike
